| |
| - | [[File:MetisSmartModelingAddLangageSelection.PNG|center|300x350px]]
| |
| - |
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The administrator can either add an existing language or create a new language.
| |
| - |
| |
| - |
| |
| - | ==== Adding an Existing Language ====
| |
| - |
| |
| - | If the administrator chooses to add an existing language, the following window appears after selecting the "Add available language" option:
| |
| - |
| |

| |
| - |
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The contents of this window is non editable.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The window contains the list of all the available languages. These languages could from one of the following sources:
| |
| - | * an ascendant version
| |
| - | * the current version
| |
| - | * a descendant version
| |
| - |
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The first three columns of the window (Flag, Code and Designation) show the country flag, the language code and the language designation.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The last column (Version) indicates the version in which the language has been created.

| |
| - |
| |

| |
| - | [[File:MetisSmartModelingLanguageAddNewLanguage.PNG|center|600x400px]]
| |
| - |
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The properties of the language must be provided, that is to say:
| |

| |
| - | For each language that has already been made available by the administrator, a designation should be provided. This designation should be the name of the created language translated into the other language (e.g. "Russian" in English, "Russe" in French, "Russisch" in German etc.).
| |
| - |
| |
| - | === Editing a Language ===
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Selecting a language and clicking on the "Edit" button [[File:MetisSmartModelingEditButton.PNG|link=]] displays the properties of the language as shown in the following example:
| |
| - |
| |
| - |
| |
| - | [[File:MetisSmartModelingLanguageEdit.PNG|center|600x400px]]
| |
| - |
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The properties of a language includes:
| |
| - | * a picture representing the country flag
| |

| |
| - |
| |
| - | If the administrator is not the owner of the language (i.e. the language has been created in another version), it is only possible for the administrator to edit the descriptions of the language (for each language that has been made available by the version administrator). The language code and the picture cannot be edited.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | If the administrator is the owner of the language, it is possible for the administrator to edit the descriptions of the language (for each language that has been made available by the version administrator) and the picture representing the country flag. The language code cannot be edited.

| |
| - |
| |
| - | The contents of the window cannot be edited.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | === Priority ===
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The order in which the languages are displayed correspond to the language priority order. This order is considered when a description is missing for an item.
| |
| - | When a description is missing, Metis looks for the item description in the other available languages and displays this description.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | This means that if the description of an item is missing in the first language, Metis displays the description in the second language if it exists. If not, the description in the third language is displayed and so on.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The priority can be modified by clicking on the ''Priority'' button. The following window appears:
| |
| - |
| |
| - | [[File:MetisSmartModelingLanguagePriority.PNG|center|300x350px]]
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The table is populated with the languages that have been defined for the current version. The contents of the table cannot be edited. The priority order of the language can be defined using the up and down arrows on the right of the table. The language at the top of the table has the highest priority. The language at the bottom of the table has the lowest priority.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | === Deleting a Language ===
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The administrator can delete a language by selecting it first, then clicking on the "Delete" button [[File:MetisSmartModelingDeleteButton.PNG|link=]].
| |
| - |
| |
| - | If the version has been manually created (i.e. no lock) or is owned by the current version, a confirmation window appears.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | If the language is owned by another version (i.e. presence of a lock), the right to use this language is removed without prior notice.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | If all the languages are deleted, Metis proposes by default English as the language of the version.
